I would strongly recommend this game to new players, especially considering that on top of being a fun, unique, and intense game, it can only get better with a larger community. The concept is very simple. One team of 4 plays as divers while the other team of 2 plays as sharks. The divers start out with a small sum of money which can be used to purchase low level weapons/upgrades, and then divers gain money by collecting treasure, killing/assisting sharks, and playing support to their team. This can then be used to purchase better weapons and upgrades.
The sharks rack up "evolution" points by killing and injuring divers which allows them to upgrade their abilities. Overall it is an extremely fun game that can offer many hours of fun while also providing a fresh experience for gamers tired of the same old shooters.
As you might see from other reviews, playing as a diver is more difficult than playing as sharks, but I have not found that to significantly detract from the fun. The developers for this game are very responsive and connected with the community, so hopefully the game will continue to become more balanced.
The game is even more fun if you can play with a group of friends. Especially with its smaller game settings. You will never have so many induced heart attacks as you will playing this game.
My only reservations, which I feel obligated to mention are that: 1) the maps, weapons, upgrades, and playable characters is relatively small variety. However, I think that this puts a greater emphasis on strategy and keeps the game simple and fun, rather than flooded with weapon types and customizations that confer unfair advantages. 2) You need to have a smooth framerate and little lag to enjoy the game. Otherwise you will never be able to play well as either team. So if you have a less powerful computer, expect to turn down the graphics/resolution in order to play smoothly. The game still looks great for me though, and I play on a mediocre gaming laptop.

I hope more people will keep playing this game. The bigger community the better.
